Segmentation
To start with, there is a further classification of Segmentation as follows:
Dynamic: This segmentation allows dynamic addition of new customers based on the rules applied while creating the segment.
Static: This segmentation allows the addition of only a fixed set of customers based on the rules applied. Thus, there is no increase or decrease in segment count once it is created.
